The Daily Caller – by Amber Randall
A Black Lives Matter chapter is launching a “Black Xmas” initiative to urge people to buy from black owned businesses during the holidays to “resist white capitalism.”
Black Lives Matter Los Angeles called on people to refuse to buy from white owned businesses and take that money to invest in the black community from Nov. 25 to Jan. 1. 2018. The boycott serves as an attempt to resist President Donald Trump and his ties to white capitalism, the group added.
“Donald Trump embodies White capitalism. If you are anti-Trump, you should hold back your resources from him and the like,” the organization said on its website.
We’re dreaming of a #BlackXmas…where folks withhold dollars from White capitalism and use resources to #BuildBlackCommunity. Instead of spending, DONATE to a Black organization as a holiday gift for your loved ones or #BuyBlack. Go to https://t.co/klHABpJaeu for more.

Dr. Melina Abdullah, a Black Lives Matter organizer and professor of Pan-African studies, further explained that the boycott is rooted in Black Lives Matter’s attempts to get rid of state-sanctioned violence, that is often found in “white-supremacist capitalism.”
“This season, more than all others, Black Lives Matter is asking people to wake up, to be conscious of our own economic power, and to protest – not just in the streets – but in the malls,” Adbullah wrote in a 2016 op-ed for The Los Angeles Sentinel. “Black Lives Matter is dreaming of and building for a #BlackXMas, where we divest from White corporations and invest in building Black community. Rather than lining the pockets of Trump and other White-supremacist capitalists, donate to Black-led organizations that are building new, liberatory structures in our communities.”
White capitalism? Is that to say they want people to invest in black capitalism? No it’s just a way to cause racial tensions and promote communism. Let’s not forget israel Cohen’s racial program for the 20th century. Also interesting to note, how come no American governors or lawmakers are condemning and trying to outlaw this type of blatantly racist boycott against American citizens and businesses like they do for boycotts against israel? Hmm, I wonder.
Very important and insightful perspective. Thank you.

No problem!
you make me sick Jamal. nahh, I’m jus fukin with ya! the facts.. FACTS you just laid out do, however, make me sick! although not word for word, i was gonna say the same thing. they’re all fine with the ”White man’s game”, when they get to play! and yes absolutely, this is jooshit communism. about 8 inches of communism up their ass they’ll be begging for ”White” capitalism. it blows my mind how easily people glom onto outright bullshit but if you say the earth is flat, you’re crazy!! you have a groovy evening!
Lol, you too!
BLM get it right, it’s Jewish capitalism. As of today Black men and women are being sold as SLAVES in Libya, where’s the rage BLM.
Too mad at ordinary white folks (and isn’t Soros white…right? And aren’t most Jews white…after all, Khazars come from Japheth!) to give a crap about enslaved black folks I guess. Total freakin’ hypocrites (gee I wonder if Bono supports BLM too! Tax break and all that…)
Ah Christmas. The one time of the year joos LOVE Jesus! blm was created by those monsters to cause division, but many blacks already know that “the white men in black suits” aren’t white, and that’s a good thing!
For me, Christmas is strictly a family-type get-together time (or it was when my husband’s mother was still on this earth) and gift-giving–and NOT the day Christ was born (but a whole boatload of false gods were…Mithras, Tammuz, Horus, Isis, Osirus, etc. etc. etc.), but perhaps conceived (according to some Bible scholars anyway). Anyway, intent is the key–if it’s just yuletide pagan ritual nonsense, have at it (you know, Saturnalia stuff).
And anyway, BLM, don’t you folks have “Kwanzaa”? Leave Christmas alone.
🙂
Like it!
Either Christmas is in your heart or it isn’t, who gives a damn what black lives matter think!
Ahhhhh…… So very true.
